They really are backward aren’t they?
Music (mainly prog rock) and veggie loving, geeky cat butler living in Hertfordshire UK. A lover of all things LOTR (since I first read it nearly 60 years ago) scifi and what have you. Ex soldier (Royal Artillery) and other trades ;-)

It’s Gondor calling for aid.
I would prefer it if there was a raised lip around the lenses - like you get when you put a case on. That protects (to a degree) the lens of the hideously expensive camera phone you just bought.
Why? They have more prog than the others. Believe me, I’d love to stick with Qobuz as the sound quality is magnificent. Unfortunately they just don’t have the music I listen to.

I do now and it can piss right off.


Working my way through ‘The Misfits’ series by Simon Brading. Excellent. A steam punk alternative to the Battle of Britain and so on. First of the series is Battle Over Britain ;-)
Why is a) He even in there? b) still wearing that stupid hat?


The article says 30-60 days.
So possibly twice as long as the first estimate. Bit of a difference there.


You could always flip and burn.


Get Musk to test it himself.


Fingers crossed.


Great. Where’s my DVD player?


After 14 years of mismanagement and dismantling of services, it’s too soon to expect everything to be sorted.
As usual you have whiners expected it to be up and running within days, and because it isn’t, are now screaming that Labour have lied and failed.


Just a bit. Since the mid 60’s.
Can you imagine putting your 5 grand Leica lens down🙀
